Granted, but the paradox causes you to disintegrate.

I wish all my assignments were done.

17.

Mental age is 25.5 ((150*17)/100)

Yeah, I have an IQ of 150. Apparently. I never noticed.

And yeah, it'd be mostly males, although there's more females on here than on the last forum I frequented. It had all of none.

Dang... that video made me sad. Yeah, Spore's pretty crap compared to what it was supposed to be.

I still stand by my point that it would be considered fairly decent if it weren't compared to what was shown there.

Maybe an expansion or three later, it will become somewhat comparable. Until then, I'll still enjoy what I have.

Interesting...

Still, Cluttergodly the Godly Godly Godly-God sounds pretty cool too.

Yup. The biggest problem with IE - and the reason anyone even remotely familiar with the internals of their computer (both hardware and software) hates it - is that it is an (unnecessarily) integrated part of the operating system. You can't uninstall it, it has lower-level access than other browsers, and any attempts to remove it cause Windows to throw up serious errors.

Fucking.
Hate.
IE.
(This is a personal opinion and does not reflect the opinions of Bay 12 Games nor any other posters in this thread/on this forum. Your Mileage May Vary.)

Nope, not a thread about elves. In the dwarf language, om means clutter. Nom means god.

Therefore "Om nom nom" means "Cluttergod the God of Gods".

Just thought you should know.

Q: Is the game worth buying? Is it fun to play? A: NO and NO. The game is so simple and uninspiring only children find it fun and challenging. But in later stages even them can find the game to be very frustrating and unrewarding.

I love this. Not only has the guy contradicted himself, but he's implied that every single person who likes the game must be a child. So, it's easy and completely boring, and yet at the same time it's frustrating? (I'm assuming due to the difficulty.)

There is no problem solving, no strategy or any thrill whatsoever. During the course of your creatures journey, you are reduced to pressing one to four buttons or doing simple tasks repeatedly to proceed. Some people have referred the game as a tool designed to help autistic children.

And this is why I replied. As an autistic myself (albeit a high-functioning autistic), I find his throwaway comment that this game is only good for autistic children extrememly inflammatory. Not only does this imply that the mind of an autistic child is simple (lumping autism together with mental disabilities, which anyone who knew anything about autism would never do), but that all we want is pretty flashing colours to amuse us for hours on end.

Seriously, people, grow up, learn a bit about autism in general, and don't bandy about terms like autism unless you're using them with a great deal of hesitation - even the most experienced doctors are loath to diagnose something as autism until every other option has been exhausted.
